Meghalaya Doh Pork Stir Fried Ginger Sesame Khasi Quick

Ingredients

• 400g pork — thinly sliced (tenderloin or shoulder)
• 1 inch ginger — cut into thin matchsticks
• 4 garlic cloves — thinly sliced
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds — dry-roasted
• 1 small onion — sliced
• 2 green chillies — slit
• 1/2 tsp turmeric
• 1 tsp black pepper — coarsely crushed
• 1 tbsp mustard oil or any oil
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• Salt to taste
• 2 spring onions — chopped

Method

1. Dry-roast sesame seeds in a small pan 2 to 3 minutes until golden. Set aside.
2. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok or wide pan on high heat.
3. Oil should be very hot before adding pork.
4. Add sliced pork pieces in a single layer.
5. Do not stir for 90 seconds — let them sear and develop colour. Then toss and cook 2 more minutes.
6. Add sliced onion, ginger matchsticks and sliced garlic. Toss on high heat 2 minutes.
7. Add slit green chillies, turmeric and black pepper. Toss.
8. Add soy sauce. Toss everything quickly on high heat for 1 minute.
9. Taste and add salt only if needed — soy sauce provides saltiness.

11. Serve immediately over steamed rice.
